Journal Article
Aleskandarany, M. A., Sonbul, S. N., Surridge, R., Mukherjee, A., Caldas, C., Diez-Rodriguez, M., Ashankyty, I., Albrahim, K. I., Elmouna, A. M., Aneja, R., Martin, S. G., Ellis, I. O., Green, A. R., & Rakha, E. A. (2017). Rho-GTPase activating protein 18: a biomarker associated with good prognosis in invasive breast cancer. British Journal of Cancer, 117(8), 1176-1184. https://doi.org/10.1038/bjc.2017.261

Background: The prognostic value of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in breast cancer (BC) has been demonstrated in several independent studies. However, identification of driver molecules for LVI remains a challenging task. Large-scale transcriptomic p...

HER2 challenge contest: a detailed assessment of automated HER2 scoring algorithms in whole slide images of breast cancer tissues (2017)
Journal Article
Qaiser, T., Mukherjee, A., Reddy Pb, C., Munugoti, S. D., Tallam, V., Pitkäaho, T., …Rajpoot, N. (2018). HER2 challenge contest: a detailed assessment of automated HER2 scoring algorithms in whole slide images of breast cancer tissues. Histopathology, 72(2), 227-238. https://doi.org/10.1111/his.13333

Aims

Evaluating expression of the Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) by visual examination of immunohistochemistry (IHC) on invasive breast cancer (BCa) is a key part of the diagnostic assessment of BCa due to its recognised importanc...

Loss of MED23 leads to poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
cancer. Presented at Belfast Pathology 2017: 10th Joint Meeting of the British Division of the International Academy of Pathology and the Pathological Society of Great Britain & Ireland

Purpose of the study: The molecular mechanism of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) which determines the early metastatic phenotype in breast cancer is still not fully understood. Lead from the METABRIC study revealed that MED23 correlated with negative L... Read More about Loss of MED23 leads to poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer.

Cell division cycle 25C (CDC25C) expression confers poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ojiegbe, S., Joseph, C., Provenzano, E., Caldas, C., Nolan, C., Green, A., Rakha, E., Ellis, I., & Mukherjee, A. Cell division cycle 25C (CDC25C) expression confers poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer. Presented at Belfast Pathology 2017: 10th Joint Meeting of the British Division of the International Academy of Pathology and the Pathological Society of Great Britain & Ireland

Background: CDC25C, belonging to the Cdc25 phosphatase family, plays a major role in cell cycle control, impacting on DNA repair and apoptosis. It has been shown that poor prognosis/copy number high Luminal A breast cancers (BCs) are enriched for the...

Elevated expression of STK3 mRNA and protein is associated with poor outcome in invasive breast cancer (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
with poor outcome in invasive breast cancer. Presented at Belfast Pathology 2017: 10th Joint Meeting of the British Division of the International Academy of Pathology and the Pathological Society of Great Britain & Ireland

Purpose of the study: The mammalian sterile 20-like kinase (MST2/STK3) and its close homologue MST1(STK4) are members of the germinal centre kinase group II (GCK II) family of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK). High STK3 expression is known to... Read More about Elevated expression of STK3 mRNA and protein is associated with poor outcome in invasive breast cancer.

Phenotypic characterization of breast cancer: the role of CDC42 (2017)
Journal Article
Chrysanthou, E., Gorringe, K. L., Joseph, C., Craze, M. L., Nolan, C. C., Diez-Rodriguez, M., Green, A. R., Rakha, E. A., Ellis, I. O., & Mukherjee, A. (2017). Phenotypic characterization of breast cancer: the role of CDC42. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 164(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-017-4267-8

Purpose: The molecular landscape of breast cancer (BC), especially of the Luminal A subtype, remains to be fully delineated. Transcriptomic data shows that Luminal A tumours are enriched for aberrant expression of genes in the cell division control 4...

Chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 7 (CCR7) associates with the tumour immune microenvironment but not progression in invasive breast carcinoma (2017)
Journal Article
Sonbul, S. N., Gorringe, K. L., Aleskandarany, M. A., Mukherjee, A., Green, A. R., Ellis, I. O., & Rakha, E. A. (2017). Chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 7 (CCR7) associates with the tumour immune microenvironment but not progression in invasive breast carcinoma. Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, 3(2), 105-114. https://doi.org/10.1002/cjp2.65

Some previous studies have reported that the chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 7 (CCR7) plays a role in breast cancer, is associated with lymph node metastasis and drives the site of distant metastasis. However, the impact of its expression on patient o...
